Unique western style hotel in downtown Billings. Still uses metal keys for the locks, and really cool decor style in the rooms and hallways. Pillows were not very comfortable on the bed, but everything else was good.

Hard pass

I like older motels that are clean and well taken care of. Unfortunately this is not one of them. I don’t go looking for issues unless they are so easy to find. The hardboard was covered in a very thick layer of dust. The room smelled so bad! Opening the window didn’t help. I checked in later, so I could have gotten the redhead stepchild room? Who knows, I won’t go back to find out.
